We endeavor to place animals on the political agenda and to raise greater awareness of animal protection issues.

We pride ourselves on the high degree of specialist scientific and technical expertise within our organization. HSI’s approach is to always strive to be part of the solution, rather than to simply protest against animal welfare problems or abuses.
